An MBA for Indian cricket coach's post



This is possible only in India.



An MBA graduate with no experience in playing
cricket has applied to be the coach of the Indian team, a board official said on
Tuesday.

"One of the applications we have received is
from an MBA graduate, despite the fact that he has not played any cricket. In
the column where applicants have to state their cricketing experience, he has
written that he has never played cricket," the official told IANS on condition
of anonymity.

"Further, he has written that he did not think
it was essential to play cricket to coach a team. He said that it required a
different kind of skill to manage the team," the official said. He declined to
name the individual.
Currently, the Indian team has an ad hoc coach, former
Test player Lalchand Rajput.



Need we say more?
